SCANNER TEST
The USB Interface.
The USB model will connect to the computers USB interface. Plug in the
unit with the computer running. The USB model uses Human Interface
Device Drivers that are built into any operating system that supports USB.
During the installation you may be prompted to insert you operating system
disk. After installation is complete, check Windows Device Manager. You
should find a listing for Human Interface Devices, and the scanner will be
listed as a human interface Device under that category. The barcode scan-
ner will emulate a USB keyboard. In operation it will act just like the Key-
board wedge model. Test the USB interface like the Keyboard Wedge
interface above.
The RS-232 Interface.
The model with the RS-232 interface is designed to connect to the Com:
port of a Personal Computer, or other RS-232 Device. The connector is
wired in DCE configuration. It will connect to the port without the requirement for a null-modem
cable. An external power supply is required, since there is no power available from a standard
RS-232 connector. An accessory power supply, Model APS002 is available from Custom
Sensors. If another power supply is used, it must be regulated
5VDC±10% @ 200 milliamps minimum and must have a
power connector that is 5.5mm outside diameter and 2.1mm
inside diameter. The center is positive. The RS-232 connector
is a type DB-9S and is wired as shown in the table.
Apply power to the scanner, but do not connect the RS-232
cable. The default mode of operation of this scanner is Key-
board wedge. The first task is to change this to RS-232. Turn
to page 2-4 of this manual. Scan the START code at the top of
the page. The scanner should respond by sounding a series of
tones. Scan the Use RS-232 Interface barcode on that page.
Scan the END code at the top of the page. The scanner is now
configured for RS-232 operation. The communications param-
eters are: 9600 Baud, 8 Data Bits, and No Parity. RTS/CTS
handshaking is disabled. These parameters can be changed
as outlined in part two of this manual.
